Nintendo has announced a new date for when Switch 2 preorders will kick off in the US; April 24th.

As a part of the announcement, Nintendo said that the price of the Switch 2 will remain at $449.99 despite fears that the Trump administration’s new tariff policy would lead to increased pricing for the console. However, Nintendo also said that the Switch 2 accessories would be more expensive.

Preorders were originally set to begin on April 9th, but Nintendo delayed that following the Trump administration’s announcement of new tariffs.

Specifically, Nintendo delayed preorders “in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions.” At the time, the company said that the Switch 2’s planned June 5th launch date would be “unchanged.”

On April 8th, Nintendo also announced that it would be delaying Switch 2 preorders in Canada “in order to align with the timing of preorders to be determined in the US.”

Nintendo’s new preorder date follows President Trump announcing on April 9th that he had authorized a 90-day pause on tariffs outside of China.

The original preorder date was announced as part of Nintendo’s big reveal event for the Switch 2. At that event, Nintendo also said that the system would cost $449.99 with a $499.99 version available that includes Mario Kart World.

The new preorder date also follows Sony raising the price of PS5 models in the EU, UK, Australia, and New Zealand due to “a backdrop of a challenging economic environment.”
